I love binge watching your content so here I go. Another "season" of running with Andy is on. I earned it. Just came home from running a HM PB 💪 Man, you really deserve way more subscribers!! Where is everyone? During the race many knew your name!
Great vlog Andy, really captured the atmosphere of a great day. Wish I had filmed more on the way round but i was too focused on my running haha. Managed a PB though so it all worked out.
Great to see you again Andy! It was such a fabulous day. This is a much tougher course than I remember in previous years. Or maybe I’m getting older? 🙀
Good video Andy 👍 This event was my first half marathon and I ran it in 1:37:55.. I raise some money for the British Heart Foundation too ... Thanks for sharing 👍it brings back great memories 😀
Nice one mate., Paced my brother in law to about a 16 minute PB - he came down from 1:54 to long 1:37. Just hope I can hold the form for another 4 weeks through to Edinburgh Marathon
Hey Andy, found your channel yesterday and the content is brilliant. Keep up the good work!. Training for my first half marathon myself just started running in January. Its my local half marathon "Antrim Coast Half Marathon", nice flat fast course so fingers crossed. You should give it a look if your wanting some more races in the year.
Hi Robbie, many thanks! That course sounds awesome, I'm not sure I can fit another long haul race in this year as it requires me to have lots of time off and costs are high. All the best with it, I was in Northern Ireland recently, what an amazing place ❤️
@@itsonandy Maybe next year. You mentioned you followed Ben Parkes training program how did you find it? I am thinking of getting one of his for the half marathon to have a proper plan to follow for the 12 weeks. Just seeing if you would recommend
Yeah mate definitely. For 6 quid I thought it wasn't bad at all. Easy to follow and you can move it all around to suit yourself. Good luck with the training!
Auesome enjoy the new route, we will be in different waves so will miss each other. Fingers crosses for a pb 4u! Yes definitely give it ago its gr8 to help others!
Getting popular now and easily recognisable. So good to here the crowd cheer you on so much. Have you ever thought of raising money for a charity? I’m confident you would raise a lot and change the lives of others. Keep it up bud, you’re doing amazing 💪
It's something I've considered, I just need to think about the right thing to do and the right charity for me. One day I will! Also having my name on my bib made me think I was famous 🤣
Great job Andy, another successful race! Love the race day vlogs! Hope you have some more coming soon.
Thanks Joe! It was a super tough race and glad to finish in a decent time. Yes I have another one on the way in a couple of weeks 😎
Great race! Thanks for taking us all along! Lots of fun!
Cheers Dev! It was tough but I'm glad I got through it 👍🏻
Well done Andy. Great running and well done on your time 😀 Some nice shots of the places I know well. Maybe one day 🤔
It was a tough old course but you would fly round. Always fun though 😎

Man, you really deserve way more subscribers!! Where is everyone? During the race many knew your name!
Here he is! I have a lot of comments to get back to... This race was fun, but my name was on my bib, I'm not that famous!
The hills at 8 and 10 😂🤮. Great video mate
Cheers mate! Yes dude - they were bloody horrible. Next year I'll save some more in the tank for them!
Great vlog Andy, really captured the atmosphere of a great day. Wish I had filmed more on the way round but i was too focused on my running haha. Managed a PB though so it all worked out.
That's amazing - huge well done to grab a pb round brum as there are many more easier halfs than B'ham!
Great to see you again Andy! It was such a fabulous day. This is a much tougher course than I remember in previous years. Or maybe I’m getting older? 🙀
Hahaha no it was really tough! I clung on for dear life towards the end!
@@itsonandy oh those hills! Well done on great time!
Good video Andy 👍 This event was my first half marathon and I ran it in 1:37:55.. I raise some money for the British Heart Foundation too ... Thanks for sharing 👍it brings back great memories 😀
Gret Job Stephen, on both fronts 👍🏻
I did Birmingham half a few years ago and it was hell! The hills are never ending! Smashed it though Andy!!
Nice one Hannah. Yes they were brutal! So glad to see the back of them at mile 10, then came everest with 600m to go 🥵
Great vlog Andy, looks like a great event and well done on the time too!
Thanks! That medal felt very well earned 💪🏻
Nice one mate.,
Paced my brother in law to about a 16 minute PB - he came down from 1:54 to long 1:37.
Just hope I can hold the form for another 4 weeks through to Edinburgh Marathon
Bloody hell he must have improved hugely! All the best in Edinburgh!
Yes the undulating section in the middle was quite challenging. Managed to PB by 4 minutes with a time of 1.35:02.
Well done Neil, it was a very tough course. Well done!
Very good time, well done to you sir. "That middle third gave me a good 'iding" made me giggle hahaha
🤣🤣🤣 They showed me who was boss!
Great video, I'm doing the same in Manchester in 3 weeks' time.
Good luck Rob! It'll be a great event I'm sure 👍🏻
Fantastic running Andy .
Nice one Claire, tough one and another medal for the collection ❤️
Hope you both enjoyed the post race Disney cafe / beer celebrations. Well done looked a tough course

Thank you Michael! It was a fun day out ❤️
Love your vibe man. Great effort
Cheers Dan 👊🏻
Great running buddy 👏👍 fitness is definitely still there 😁💪🏃 great vlog
Cheers Kieron! Hr is a bit high still, need to get control of that. Hoping the 2nd half of 2022 is a good one!
My wife is a massive Disney-phile too! Great race vlog as always.
Laura is mad on Disney... Always helps if I'm stuck for Xmas presents 🤣
Great video 📹 Looked like a beast of a course. Any other HMs planned this year?
Cheers Brian - yes I've got a few irons in the fire, including the daddy of Half's, the GNR in September!
@@itsonandy Ah thats great. GNR on my bucket list. I'm doing Vitality Big Half Sept and especially looking forward to Amsterdam Half in October!!
Great job! Looks like a wonderful race, even with all the hills. Thanks for sharing with us!
It was a good one, not the best event I've done but certainly not yhe worst!
What shoes would you recommend?
I can only really recommend what I've used and liked so here goes. Saucony Endorphin Speed 2, Hoka rincon 2, Brooks Adrenaline 20. 👍🏻
Great vlog Andy
Thanks! Another medal in the bag 🍺
Btw, how was the Disney Cafe? 🥳
Too much of a queue 🤦🏻♂️ We kept it classy and had a pizza hut buffet instead 🤣
@@itsonandy ahhh pizzaaaaa!
U running it this yr? I'm pacing the 10k 1 hr 10
Hi Sharlotte, yes I'm doing it, but the half again. Have fun pacing! Would love to try that one day!
Auesome enjoy the new route, we will be in different waves so will miss each other. Fingers crosses for a pb 4u! Yes definitely give it ago its gr8 to help others!
I got a PB on the course, but it was my first half marathon, so any time would've been a PB 😂
Hopefully the first of many! Hope you enjoyed it 😎

Undulating.
I think that's code for "this is harder than some trails" 🤣
Well done, great video... love your sentiment about littering, top top man
Cheers Ric, littering/spitting etc grinds my gears...
